I may well have, it didn't exist when my stuff was written.

Well.. yes and no... I still don't see how it can be sane to whack config
space back before the device has been turned back on. I wouldn't be surprised
if some devices don't grok well their BARs being written while not in D0.

I suppose I can always add another hook inside pci_restore_blah for my specific
case but I can also very easily see that can of worms hitting even more badly
in tight embedded environments such as handhelds, who use things like fine clock
control a lot more extensively.

In fact, even on x86, I'm not sure it's kosher to restore the config space
before you called ACPI...

Ben.
